I am a 32 year old wannabe writer. A fledgling interest in writing during my wonder years has morphed into a passion in adulthood with the arrival of blogging...more specifically free blogging. I am a business management professional and have been for the better part of the last 9 years. At the end of a busy day I just like to hang up my shingle and sit by my desk to write. It is my way to de-stress. So I always write about all that is positive. Personal motivation and self growth is a pet theme. That chiefly is the central idea around which my nascent blog ( www.grafittisplash.blogspot.com) revolves. Writing is not only a form of self expression for me but also a means to improve myself through the bits of wisdom I gain each day from the written and read word. For a lot of us 'following the news' has been an unconscious habbit. Now, Digital Journal gives me a cherished opportunity to report on some of it as well! |
